newbie in desperate need of help (pics0

Oh okay good. I was kinda thinking maybe the roots are not getting enough oxygen. Have you checked the Ph in the soil? I know MG soil has a tendency to raise it.I use the same soil..

I haven't checked the pH yet, but I will soon. I'm kind of thinking that on the four that don't look terrible they suffered from heat stress, and the the two that look like they are dying suffered root damage when I transplanted them into their new containers a couple of days ago. Does this seem plausible?

Ya. That's very possible. By looking at the leaves on some, it looks like nute burn. And the one i see wilting looks either transplant shock or High Ph. Or a combination of both.

Well, thanks for your help everyone. Right now I think I will just give them water, keep just one bulb going and hope they bounce back.

Any other suggestion would still be appreciated.

Do that for a while. They should perk back up for ya. Just don't over water though. In those small cups it's easy to do. Their not beyond repair..

can you get new dirt? if not this worked for me before, get some of your mg soil, put it in a bucket, or something. run hot water over it, and let it soak for a couple hours. then ring out the soil in your hands a few times, squeeze it good. and bake it in the oven to dry it at 180.f that should weaken the nutes enough for sensitive new plants. it worked for me. good luck. oh yeah you should wrap those cups with foil, so the roots wont get any light.

you are cooking them...Too much Ferts

here is your answer.... everybody says miracle grow soil is bad for cannabis. they are talking about the normal miracle grow with time realeased fertilizer in it. but i just grew a 10 foot giant in my back yard this year using nothing but miracle grow soil lol. ok so your plant looks way over fertilized, and its near death, and there is really nothing you can do about it. but thats ok, its a good lesson we learn.. so the trick is when growing with miracle grow soil, start with a mix of miracle grow soil and some other type of organic soil with no fertilizer in it... mix it about 5 parts organic soil to 1 part miracle grow soil. then when the plant gets about 6 inches tall, than you can transfer the plant into straight miracle grow. i use the moisture control kind, but any kind will work. its not the best way to grow cannabis, but its easy as hell. so go get some more seed and try again.

I think the two that were looking pretty bad are now past the point of no return. The other four still look okay, I think they'll make it. I'll post updated pics in a while.

so how did that turn out? im curious now. did he soak and bake his dirt?

It wasn't dirt that was the issue, so I didn't mess with it. I killed those plants because I handled them too roughly when transplanting from small cups to keg cups.

man, that sucks. i used those red keg cups this time as soon as they opened, and put mine in an empty fish tank with a seedling heat pad under it, and let them grow for 3 weeks like that, and had great results. the heat mave em ALOT more roots compared to when i did it without.

sorry dude i mean it sucks those plants didnt make it.

Sells the exact same setup for 70 shipped. I think I'm going to get it as another on RIU vouched for the kit and the supplier. If I would have known this I may have never messed with CFL in the first place, granted I'll still augment with CFL.
